Closing Reception for Michael Dotson CURVES @ Nudashank



Michael Dotson

C̶U̶R̶V̶E̶S̶

Closing Reception Saturday, November 6

6 -9pm


Michael Dotson creates contemporary, synthetic landscapes that achieve a hi-tech sensibility through the use of low-tech media (paint and tape). Applying basic two-point perspective and color theory, Dotson creates vivid geometric simulations of imagined utopic environments. Interior and exterior virtual spaces are rendered with a hard-edged digital flatness that belies the fact that the work is made by the human hand.

From pimped out space-age cribs to a crashed, semi-submerged UFO in a crystal mountain lake, Dotson's imagery draws equally from video game nostalgia and idealized contemporary culture.

Also on view is a new series of pixelated marker drawings that turn universal pop symbology into personal iconography.

Hauntingdon 2010!


HAUNTINGDON AVENUE 2010 Halloween Block Party!
October 31st
6 - 8pm
2900 Block of Huntingdon Ave

HAUNTINGDON AVENUE 2010 is a one-day community block party created by Remington residents for the community and the city of Baltimore to celebrate Halloween in a fun and safe environment. This year GRIA is partnering with Black Cherry Puppet Theatre to bring the art of puppetry to this already interactive event.

HAUNTINGDON AVENUE 2010 will brighten up the 2900 block of Huntingdon Avenue with a spooky festive spectacle featuring artwork and decorations made by Remington youth created in the community run Porch Art weekly workshops. It will also feature décor made by adult residents that result from weekly community craft gatherings.

Huntingdon Avenue residents are transforming their porches into interactive scary sets where you will be able to get your face painted, play a game, record a ghost story, or get your photo taken in costume! New additions this year include a puppet show porch brought to you from the guidance of Black Cherry Puppet Theater, walking street puppets, Hula Hoop master Spilly, stilt
walking from Paco Fish and performances by local musicians Ricky and Lennon La Ricci.
